King back for Spurs

Tottenham manager Martin Jol is boosted by the return of captain Ledley King for the trip to Manchester United tomorrow.

King has finally recovered from surgery on his knee and will partner Michael Dawson in defence.

However, new £10.8m (€15.9m) Bulgarian striker Dimitar Berbatov, is almost certain to miss out after suffering a groin strain on international duty.

New signing Pascal Chimbonda is set to make his debut at right-back after recovering from a kick on the calf he sustained in his last appearance for Wigan.

Provisional squad: Robinson, Chimbonda, Stalteri, Lee, Ekotto, Dawson, King, Davenport, Huddlestone, Lennon, Jenas, Davids, Murphy, Ziegler, Tainio, Defoe, Keane, Mido, Zokora.
